Welcome

Welcome to my blog. My blogging journey began about in August 2009 as a photo-a-day blog which has since transitioned to combine my love of good food and photography. Today, using as many local and fresh ingredients as we can, my boyfriend and myself spend time researching recipes, making our own adaptations, cooking, taking photos, eating, and finally reflecting on all or part of the above listed process here. I hope you take the time to not only read and look at our photos, but please cook some of the recipes yourself. You are invited and encourage to leave feedback as we continue our culinary journey!

Slow Cooker Chicken Athena

Another one for the slow cooker from the cookbook my mom bought me for Christmas. Mediterranean chicken with a twist.


Chicken Athena
3 boneless chicken breast halves
medium onion, chopped
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1/3 cup pitted Greek olives, chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt

Place chicken in slow cooker and add all the remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours. Serve over rice.

Our evaluation of this recipe is that it was very tasty, but we wish we had added more olives and sun-dried tomatoes. Next time we make the recipe we will add more like 1/2 cup of each.
